HONEY BOX ASSEMBLING DEVICE Application filed September 2, 1930. SerialNo. 479,331.

This invention appertains to new and useful improvements in honey boxesassembling devices, and the principal object isv to prO- vide a devicewhich can be easily operated in a positive acting manner.

Other important objects and advantages' of the invention will be foundin the following speciiication.

In the drawing n Fig. 1 represents a front elevational-view of the boxin its assembling device. v

Fig. 2 represents a top plan View of the box in its assembling device.

In the drawing wherein like numerals l5 designate like parts, it can beseen that the honey box consists of an elongated strip of wood, notchedat one side transversely at equal spaced intervals, as at 5, the stripproper being denoted by numeral 6.

vide teeth 7 which are brought together in meshed relation as theassembling device is operated. It can be seen in Fig. 2, that a slit isprovided in one section of the strip 6 which extends from the toothedend to the first transverse notch to facilitate the insertion of thefoundation 8 into the box.

It can also be seen that the upper and lower sections of the box arereduced as at 10.

Figs. 1 and 2 show a novel assembling device for the frame whichincludesa U-shaped structure 11 bifurcated at its upper endas at 12 to receivethe cam elements 13 which is rotatably supported by the bracket 14. Thecam element 13 is provided with a lever 15 whereby it can be rotated.

Obviously by rotating the cam 13, the same may be brought tob-earagainst the box whereby the box will beassembled within the holder 11.

Vfhile the foregoing specification sets forth described comprising aU-shaped structure, one upper end portion of the U-sha-ped structurebeing provided with a downwardly extending slot, a pair of brackets onthe outside of thefsad end portion, one at each side of the said slot, adisk eccentrically mounted between the brackets to'operate through theslot, and a tangentially disposed lever on the said disk.

Invtestimony whereof I afiix my signature.
